If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 1340: For the Sake of Your Pregnancy

Sometimes when she gets too engrossed in her thoughts, she would cup her head to stop herself from thinking about him.

There were plenty of men who were younger than him, more handsome, and wealthier, why did she only think about him?

She remembered every time she went home for the holidays, her mayoral father would take her to some small banquets and cocktail parties, where she’d meet a lot of young men her age from decent families. Even though she never took a fancy to any of them, at least... there were quite a few who pursued her.

"Then don’t regret it," Xu Chaomu chuckled, "Do you have any idea how many beautiful girls there are at Shen Group? I’ll take you to see them next time. I’ve worked there before, and let me tell you, not only are they beautiful, but they’re also particularly cunning."

"Aren’t you afraid that your husband would be snatched away by them?" Xia Chuqing said lightly.

"He wouldn’t dare."

Xia Chuqing smiled: "In front of your husband, you’re just a little white rabbit. Don’t think I don’t know that you’re like a mouse seeing a cat in his presence."

"Don’t make fun of me, I’m talking about you." Xu Chaomu covered her forehead, "When will you come to the hospital? I’ve already sent you the location of his ward, you can just come directly."

"I’ve bought a ticket back to the country."

"Hmm? When?"

"In three hours."

"You’ve come all the way here; are you content with seeing him just once?"

"I think he’s almost healed. Chaomu, it’s good enough that you’re there. There’s no need for me." Xia Chuqing lowered her head.

"This doesn’t sound like the Chuqing I know. Where’s your courage? It would be such a pity to truly miss out. You know, Xiao Mo isn’t getting any younger, and being the only son in the family, who knows if he might get muddled and marry under the urging of his parents. Then, there really would be no turning back."

"Why is it always me taking the initiative..." Xia Chuqing’s voice trailed off softly.

"In love, it doesn’t matter who takes the initiative or who is passive. As long as there is love, why not be more forward. If he is proud, just indulge him a bit. Once you’re married, you can ’torture’ him however you want."

"I’ll talk about it when I’m back in the country. I’m going to the airport now."

"Are you sure you won’t come?"

"I won’t."

Xia Chuqing hung up the phone, sitting on the edge of the bed, feeling somewhat downhearted.

More than an hour later, she arrived at the airport. Once again on an airplane, she wasn’t lucky enough to run into him.

As the plane slowly took off, she didn’t see the person she wanted to see.

Looking out at the vast blue sky from the window, she remained silent.

In the past, she wasn’t one to remain silent, but ever since she fell for someone, she changed, becoming somewhat at a loss.

She didn’t even know what he liked to eat, what color he preferred—she simply liked him in the purest sense.

It took a long time to return domestically. Wrapped in a blanket, Xia Chuqing quickly fell asleep.

Xu Chaomu, on the other hand, felt a bit regretful. She really wanted to meddle in this affair, but Shen Chi stopped her.

"Love is a matter between two people; letting it happen naturally is best," Shen Chi said indifferently.

"But sometimes love also needs a helping hand," Xu Chaomu looked at him.

"They haven’t reached that extent yet, the number of times they’ve seen each other is countable on one hand—are you speaking to me about love at first sight?"

"I think Xiao Mo has feelings for Chuqing. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken back the lilies Chuqing bought from that little girl. He’s just like you, unwilling to admit it, unwilling to confront it. Really, like master, like servant—you’re both cut from the same cloth."

"If he has feelings, he will naturally pursue her. Why worry needlessly?" Shen Chi did not agree with Xu Chaomu’s words.

He and Xiao Mo were both men; how could Shen Chi not understand Xiao Mo’s thoughts?

Xiao Mo had liked Xu Chaomu; he saw it clearly, but he would not discuss it with Xu Chaomu.

As for Xia Chuqing, Shen Chi wasn’t sure—whether Xiao Mo genuinely liked her or merely had a slight fondness for her, or perhaps, it was just because Xia Chuqing’s personality was not too dissimilar from Xu Chaomu’s.

Since Xiao Mo hadn’t even seen his own heart clearly, he couldn’t possibly interfere.

"Why do you insist on fighting with me?" Xu Chaomu became angry, "Xiao Mo certainly likes Chuqing, you know they’ve only met a few times, would he have asked for the lilies back if he didn’t like her?"

"Xiao Mo probably doesn’t know what liking someone means, let alone love. You’re needlessly meddling."

"So you know everything, you’re so smart, and no one else understands."

"Enough, stop fighting." Shen Chi scolded.

"It was you who started arguing with me first!" Xu Chaomu retorted, glaring at him.

"Fine, fine, fine, I started the argument, it’s my fault."

"Such a bad attitude."

"Do you really want to anger me to death?" Shen Chi glared back at her, "You were crying your eyes out the day you arrived in the United States, what did you say then? That you would listen to everything I say, right?"

Xu Chaomu choked up; she had said that, but it was under a misunderstanding.

"Forget it, I won’t stoop to your level, holding petty grudges." Xu Chaomu ignored him.

"Xu Chaomu, you’ve really grown up!" Shen Chi held her shoulder down, pressing her onto the edge of the bed.

He leaned down, whispering in her ear, "If it weren’t for the fact that you are pregnant, I would definitely punish you properly."

"Shen Chi, you have no idea how to pamper your wife."

"..." Shen Chi looked innocent.

"I don’t want to deal with you, don’t talk to me." Xu Chaomu said with annoyance.

"..."

Shen Chi could not be coerced but only coaxed, and now he was at a loss.

Xu Chaomu turned her face away, truly ignoring him.

"..." Shen Chi lowered his head, "Alright, I was wrong, you are right, Xiao Mo does like Chuqing."

"Do you really know what you did wrong?"

"..." Shen Chi’s face was filled with resentment, damn it, could he say that he didn’t know?

But he still nodded: "I know."

"That’s more like it." Xu Chaomu finally smiled, hooking her arm around his neck, and gave him a kiss on his cheek as a reward.

But just as she was about to lower her arm, Shen Chi was not having it, holding her shoulder, he kissed her lips!

Unable to voice his suffering or words, he could only kiss her.

Shen Chi kissed her lips fervently, rolling and turning, diving deep into the kiss.

"Mmm..." Xu Chaomu was moved, hooking her neck around his, quickly becoming lost in it, her eyes hazy.

Shen Chi was equally engrossed in the kiss, after being apart for so long, he missed her scent.

Perhaps they were both too absorbed; neither of them heard the sound of the room door opening.

The door opened a crack, and a small head peeked around, eyes wide and round.

Shen Chi and Xu Chaomu were so engrossed in their kiss that neither noticed Xiaobao.

A few dozen seconds later, Xiaobao covered his eyes with his hands.

Xu Chaomu heard the noise, she opened her eyes, and turning her head, she saw Xiaobao covering his eyes.

She quickly pushed Shen Chi away, and following her gaze, Shen Chi looked towards the doorway...

The next second, he got out of bed, strode to the doorway, grabbed Xiaobao by his clothes and threw him out, forcefully closing the door, his entire face darkened.
